TMSA students and staff are only permitted to purchase embroidered school uniforms and polo shirts with TMSA's official logo from our school's four approved uniform vendors. The school's logo will not be shared with parents/guardians and teachers for personal embroidery. J&R Uniforms and Prestige Apparel (TMSA's two brick and mortar/storefront uniform locations) will embroider quality, pre-purchased polo shirts based on uniform guidelines (with the exception of polo shirts purchased from Old Navy) with the TMSA logo for a fee.
** Please note: The Main Street Academy's refreshed logo may slightly visually differ depending upon the vendor selected to purchase school uniforms as embroidery machines vary.**
TMSA Dress Code & Uniform Policy
All students must come to school wearing the approved uniform. The uniform policy will be strictly enforced beginning the first day of school. Students who violate the policy will face the following disciplinary actions:
- First Offense – After the first offense the teacher will call home and a written note will also go home in the student’s backpack.
- Second Offense – After the second offense the student will be sent to the Front Office and the parent will be called and asked to bring in proper clothing.
- Third Offense – After the third offense the student will be sent to the Front Office and suspended for the remainder of the day. If a parent fails to pick up his or her student, TMSA may take disciplinary action, including but not limited to further suspension or expulsion of the student.
- Upon the occurrence of any additional offenses, TMSA may take disciplinary action, including but not limited to further suspension or expulsion of the student.
Parents will receive schedules for their child’s classroom in advance to inform them of P.E. days.
On P.E. days, students must come to school wearing the approved P.E. uniform.
All non-P.E. days, students must wear the daily uniform.
Fun Fridays
Fun Fridays will occur the last Friday of each month, beginning in August.
Fun Fridays is a TMSA fundraiser, and is optional. Students may wear non-ripped blue jeans and a TMSA shirt (a TMSA uniform shirt or a TMSA T-shirt, which must have “TMSA” on the shirt – this shirt could be from any TMSA event or a TMSA spirit gear t-shirt) on the last Friday of each month for $1. T-shirts may not be altered in any way; blue jeans must be full-length jeans (no jean shorts, skirts or cut-offs). Beginning April 1 and ending Thanksgiving break, students may wear uniform shorts if the weather is warm and shorts are preferred to blue jeans.
Each student must have $1 in hand when entering the school building on Friday morning. If the student is dressed in jeans and does not have $1, the student will forfeit the right to participate in future Fun Fridays and the parents will be notified to bring a change of clothes to school.
All other applicable uniform and apparel standards apply on Fun Fridays.
All proceeds from Fun Fridays will support school sponsored events during the school year.
The school reserves the right to adjust the frequency of Fun Fridays at any time during the school year. In such event, parents will be notified in advance.
Field Trip Uniform
All students must wear the full daily TMSA dress code uniform for field trips. If a Field Trip falls on a Fun Friday, please make sure your student is dressed in the daily uniform, not the Fun Friday uniform.
Dress Uniform (Middle School)
TMSA middle school students must wear the TSMA plaid tie, when asked to wear the Dress Uniform. Middle school students may be asked to wear the Dress Uniform for events, performances, field trips, or for any other reason at the direction of a TMSA teacher or administration. TMSA middle school students are also required to wear the complete Dress Uniform on Mondays and Tuesdays. The blue polo is allowed for Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays (with the exception of Fun Fridays and P.E.).
